I wouldn't trust a cheque from him, I'd want cash

why would he say that

i mean, yeah its a joke but *******hell, we're way past joking, its a loooooong time since any of this was something you could crack a funny at, especially that dimebar.

he's either an idiot, out of touch with the strength of feeling.....or......confident that something is going down pretty soon.

Not heard much from MC recently on that score either, which could be viewed as confirmation of some kind of movement on the issue.

not holding my breath though.

I wish his head would set a fire so I could stamp it out

Perhaps he's going to resign.

I do not believe a word that man says

Same here!

As someone who is no longer in the loop I tend to take more notice of what isn’t said rather than what is. Whilst the club and the trust remain quiet and are not asking for cash then I have to assume something is still going on. What I don’t know but if all hope was lost then I see no reason why we wouldn’t be taking the the last option by now and perusing them through the Courts.

Have heard rumours from 2 different sources over last week or two that there would be good news regarding the ground and it would involve developing Belle Vue. But hey we have so many false dawns.

I’m just miffed the guy has gone on record again raising people’s hopes. If there’s nowt happening keep it shut. I simply can’t believe a word the blokes says, however as with all of us, I’m happy on this occasion to be proven wrong. I’m just not holding my breath!

Call me cynical: but if he's still spouting lies and excuses then following it up with vague promises of 'good news' I wouldn't hold my breath. I imagine this good news will be no more than another unrealistic proposal to drag this out even longer then blame the club for being unreasonable - again. And if it is another proposal to do up Belle Vue, IMO that's nothing but another red herring to get us off the Newmarket scent while York Court continue to gobble up the land.

No, I don't go with the redevelopment of Belle Vue thing either, its a bit too restrictive, its not the site you'd choose if you were starting from scratch.
Having said that, if its a choice between Belle Vue + a fair crack at income streams other than match days VS Newmarket and in hock, lock stock and barrel to a 3rd party, I'll take Belle Vue.
